挑战

Digital Realty began in 2014 to take a more standardized and consistent approach to ESG (environmental, social, governance). While it continued to make concerted efforts in areas like energy efficiency and green building certifications, Digital Realty identified several gaps in its ESG data that would need to be filled before the company could truly scale its sustainability efforts. Before Measurabl, Digital Realty did much of its environmental data collection and analysis manually in spreadsheets. The team needed a more sophisticated way to capture ESG data from disparate sources as well as assess and improve its data coverage and quality. Digital Realty was also looking to begin reporting to benchmarks like GRESB and CDP, so its sustainability team needed a system that could store and format the data for disclosure.

解决方案

When Digital Realty adopted Measurabl in 2016, it was primarily looking to streamline its ESG reporting and maintain ownership of its data without having to do it all manually. In addition to helping Digital Realty successfully report to GRESB, CDP, and other benchmarks, Measurabl’s platform has also given the team a single place to reliably track projects, certifications, and KPIs alongside its ESG performance data. Measurabl’s search functionality has made it easy for the team to cross-check information about the energy performance, improvement projects underway, and other material data on its individual assets. Viewing all of its available utility data in one central platform has also given Digital Realty the ability to understand its current data coverage so it can work continuously to fill the gaps, especially as stakeholder demands evolve.
